The sizes and weights of secondary tumors in BALB/c nude mice were restrained following treatment with rapamycin compared to vehicle solution. (A and B) Various sizes of secondary tumors occurring in the two groups on the same day. (C) The growth curve of secondary tumors in mice from the 2nd to the 14th day after intraperitoneal injection with rapamycin or vehicle, which showed that the tumors were inhibited by treatment with rapamycin compared to control. (D) The weights of the tumors that were harvested from the two groups, which showed that the tumors were significantly inhibited in the rapamycin group compared with the vehicle group. ^*P<0.05. Veh, vehicle; Rap, rapamycin.
